Answer:
B. The air pressure would increase 2X
Explanation:
Pressure = density × acceleration due to gravity × height
p = ρ × g × h
Pressure is force per unit area
p = F/a
Density is mass per unit volume
Pressure is directly proportional to density hence, any change in the density of a body directly affects the change in pressure of the body and vice versa.
The percentage error is the error of the measured value to the true value. To find he percent error, the equation is as follows:
Percent error = |Measured Value - True Value|/True Value * 100
The || is needed to get the absolute value of the difference. Substituting the values,
Percent error = |(10.085 g/10 mL) - 0.9975 g/mL|/<span>0.9975 g/mL * 100
</span><em>Percent error = 1.1% </em>
The mass of magnesium should be less than 0.09g to enable a faster reaction rate. Magnesium reacts to form a white coating around it which stops the reaction. The lesser the gram the faster the reaction before the coating is formed. It is also advisable to use magnesium fillings to increase the rate of reaction.
